Here's the rule I live by: one square foot of floor space per foot length of snake. So, an 18ft Burm would need, like, a 9x3 cage. Or two 6ft snakes, housed together, would need a 4x3 enclosure, or something of the like.

I NEVER feed my snakes in the cage - I've heard stuff about them becoming aggressive feeders, getting substrate impacted, etc. I figure, better safe than sorry.

: I guess caging size would be a question, I've read many varying opinions. Will a 8X3 be adequate for an adult female? is Neodeasha still in business, my current boa cages are Visions.

: I noticed everyone seems to feed in their enclosure, my boas eat in a separate container. Obviously you don't want a huge snake still in feed mode when you think its time to put her back.
